The Waddlepus is an aquatic enemy in Pikmin 3. It appears to be a purple starfish-like creature with several yellow protrusions on its back. It is harmless and incapable of killing your Pikmin.

The Waddlepus sits idly and is generally passive. However, once Pikmin are in its line of sight, it will inflate its back and blow bubbles everywhere, which will encase your Pikmin, sending them floating away until they pop. You can pop the bubbles prematurely by throwing a Pikmin at them. When attacked, it will slowly waddle around, and inflate to shake off the Pikmin.

The Waddlepus can blow bubbles in 2 different ways:

1. If Pikmin are stating in front of it, it will shoot a stream of bubbles from its mouth.

2: If Pikmin are attacking it, it will force all the yellow holes on its body protrude, and expell bubbles from them in every direction.
